Chateau Pape Clement was named after its most famous owner, Bertrand de Goth, better known by his papal name, Pope Clement V. The estate is one of the oldest and most renowned Grand Crus in Bordeaux, once considered second only to Haut-Brion. We’ve just received an allocation of Pape Clement’s 2016 vintage and we couldn’t have timed it more perfectly. The final scores are in (and they’re great!) and the holidays are just around the corner.
Bordeaux’s 2016 vintage is regarded as a “classic” year, marked by extremes, first with rain, then drought conditions. Yet it yielded a trove of tannic, structured, riper wines built for the cellar. The final blend here is 60% Merlot and 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, with touches of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. This Grand Vin is full-bodied with lots of ripe, dark fruit wound with mocha and spice, this wine is beautifully balanced with a lasting finish. It’s a terrific opportunity to stock up on pristine Bordeaux with a bit of bottle age right out of the gate.
